Whenever the people start to make actual headway, the currency is devalued to the point that they are put back in their place. ;^) Most of the "support" being provided by the Fed. is created out of "whole cloth" if I'm not mistaken. IOW, they just print more money. This is the very definition of inflation if I'm not mistaken. In this case, not only is the populace being made poorer through devaluation of the currency, but the printed money is being handed openly to the wealthy elite responsible for making a fast buck and causing the "problem" in the first place. It's all so very "Ferengi" (one from you, two for me, one from you, two for me...), you almost have to admire the audacity of it. Of course if people really caught on, there would be an old fashioned lynching (...of the scapegoat of course ;).
